4. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Let this cool completely, then freeze for 15 minutes. Use a 2-inch round cookie cutter and gently cut out your cookies. Place the cookies on a plate and freeze while you melt your chocolate.

5. Place chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 15 second increments until it is all melted. This took me 2 minutes. Stir in the coconut oil to thin it out.
